ROOSTA

It's this time of year some of the strongest storms with the most prolific snow amounts have occurred. Feb.1978, Mar. 1888. If that were to occur most of SNE would exceed climo. Less duration of snowpack OTG would still be considered a ratter, but in the record books as average if not above.

Right this moment a line of enhanced T-cells are about to traverse the neighborhood. That is the extent of Winter in Florida. High Temp was 84F. It all boils down to perception and expectations. The 1-3, 5-8" SWFE once seemed realistic, now an HECS, BECS might be the only Saviour for the Coastal plain. There's always next year...

Nothing but Miller A tracks. Razors-edge on p-type. Call them what you want - SWFE, inside runners, what-ever... Not a good way to run a winter. Many chances with each a different fingerprint. Tracking rapid-fire. Outcomes still TBD! Still time to salvage a 1/2 winter.

It's really snowing in New England? Well, CONGRATS. Remember any snow is good snow! It's 71F here. An overachiever in the 1-3, 3-5" range.

So, when the season comes to an end most would consider it a loss getting nickeled and dimed to AVERAGE?

My favorite type of storm when living up there! Ones that seem to back-up. Nothing but a surprise for all. Baby steps... Something to watch! FINALLY, and not a 10D threat.

Enjoy chasing. A lifetime ago many of (us) chased Noel down the Cape. Think twice about chasing severe. I was struck by lightning and wasn't chasing

LOL I traded the Trackhawk (shouldn't have, no longer in production) chasing some tail. Turned out she was a fruitcake. Bye-bye, long gone. I really hate Insurance Co. Petitioned for home health, my vitals and condition don't meet criteria. In the meantime, I hobble back and forth from kitchen to computer, bathroom and couch. Afraid to drive because I'm faint (low B/P) and still bleeding.

My siblings want me to move back N. Thinking it might be best course of action to take at this juncture. Sucks getting old. To all responders a heart-felt expression of gratitude and thanks. It's all in the big-guys hands.

What I miss? I awoke last Monday morning to blood gushing from my nose, chest pains, severe DVT throbbing in my legs, thought was buying the farm. Had to call 911 ... Two clots in both legs, lung infection, heart pumping at 50% capacity. I'm back home after a week, another 1/2 dozen scripts. The bleeding had stopped but as soon as I get back home. Momma I'm coming home!

It's never going to snow again in SNE. Emotional attachment to something that will never be forecasted perfectly, chaos at best. It'll be what it'll be, suck-it-up cupcakes. It's 82F here, the only thing to look forward to is a frontal passage with plunging temps of maybe 10-15 degrees. You never know how good it is till it's gone. Addiction to SNOW is never sedated always looking for the next fix. Could be 5' of snow on the ground and wanting more. Thunderstorms, Tropics are more frequent than a 1' storm (aside from a CAT5) and gets the adrenaline pumping while tracking. There is something about snow that's different, it's magic and not as damaging. There is a storm (snow) within the next two weeks, watch the ENS.

You're lucky Kev; no need to call an Adjuster. Image there are many more trees downed across all of the Northeast. A record breaker for sure.

AMAZING STORM. Timing absolutely sux. The expanse is impressive, debatable its effects are Hemispheric. The unfortunate aspect is that recovery will take some time. HRRR continues to show S coast, CC accumulations.

BRUTAL Guess where the FRONT is?

This event might have a few curves yet to unfold in model-land. So, you're saying there's STILL A CHANCE? What a total disaster for travelling!!!

OH NO. No surprise a D10 storm. There is always a DAY 10 storm. Let the chaos settle, get it to D5 and maybe thread-it.

I would much rather see that Vort close off over MN, better yet not even enter into the CONUS. Hounds be released and set-up the next chance. People down here are going to freeze! Blizzard in the GL, Arctic Air will be the headlines. Oh, the hype.

Regardless of what transpires. A huge letdown for many, no doubt. It's a "tracker" a huge storm at that. There are things that can be controlled, weather is not one of them. Attitude toward emotional involvement surely can be controlled and tempered knowing there is always another chance. As a hobbyist, serious business for sure, I try to keep it fun. NEXT...

Looks fine! Only umpteen runs to go. LOL Nice just to be alive and tracking.

The snow-cover is expansive. Have all 50 States at once experience a White Christmas?

Takes a longtime learning how to hype...LOL

Day Ater Tomorrow. On the precipice of EPIC PROPORTIONS.

That's what you call a tease. Verify every decade or so. Pattern looks locked in, expect miracles

To sedate "our" fix. Model agreement would be the next step. Predict this thread will surpass 200 pages.

Expect changes? Understatement of the model run and without question accurate. Sure, does look nice thought.
